Joan Merrill has thus far written five Casey McKie mystery books. Her
novels feature a female jazz-loving detective who becomes involved in
investigating a murder that takes place in the jazz world. Her latest
book, And All That Motive (available from www.joanmerrill.com),
finds McKie trying to find out who killed a popular but unlikable jazz
singer, Sid Satin, at the Pacific Coast Jazz Festival. There are an
excess of suspects and motives and very little chance that readers will
be able to guess the identity of the murderer before it is revealed. But
more significant than the actual case is the realistic atmosphere that
Joan Merrill creates. The fictional jazz instrumentalists, singers and
those involved in the business of jazz all sound and act realistically,
ranging from the heroic to the despicable, mixing together good and bad
qualities. While reading this book, one can practically hear the
bebop-oriented soundtrack. Jazz fans and those who like complex
mysteries will enjoy this series.
